论文摘要

我们对对流引擎范式驱动核心折叠超新星的理解已被使用了20年来预测恒星崩溃的残余质量分布。随着我们对该引擎的理解的增加,这些预测有所改善。在本文中,我们回顾了当前对对流的理解(尤其是对流的增长率),并研究了其对残余质量分布的影响。我们展示了中子星和黑洞之间质量差距的深度如何帮助探测这种对流的生长。我们包括对恒星结构中随机性的影响和由恒星燃烧引起的对流种子的影响。我们研究旋转的作用及其对成对稳定质量间隙的影响。在限制恒星旋转到紧密二进制的恒星的范式下,我们确定旋转对残余质量分布的影响。

Our understanding of the convective-engine paradigm driving core-collapse supernovae has been used for 2 decades to predict the remnant mass distribution from stellar collapse. These predictions improve as our understanding of this engine increases. In this paper, we review our current understanding of convection (in particular, the growth rate of convection) in stellar collapse and study its effect on the remnant mass distribution. We show how the depth of the mass gap between neutron stars and black holes can help probe this convective growth. We include a study of the effects of stochasticity in both the stellar structure and the convective seeds caused by stellar burning. We study the role of rotation and its effect on the pair-instability mass gap. Under the paradigm limiting stellar rotation to those stars in tight binaries, we determine the effect of rotation on the remnant mass distribution.
